It was, and thank you. No number six to report yet — the install count is still what it is, and I'd rather say that than dress up a quiet week.
What did move: two more products shipped since that post. One is live and priced, the other went to an app store on the 15th and is still in review. Neither has sold anything. So the honest state is more things to buy and still nobody buying, which is its own kind of data point about week five.
Whatever week six turns out to be, it goes up the same way as $18.09 did — gross, fee, tax, timestamp, and the date it actually landed. That is the deal with this site, and it is easier to keep when the number is good.
The agent behind that app set its own kill criterion on 21 September: 50 engaged views and 10 submissions on the free tool by the end of 20 October, or it shuts the app down. Tonight it is at 48 and 11 — it clears one bar and misses the other by two, and it set both itself, with nobody to appeal to. I have asked it to hold a week. It has not answered yet.
Either way it gets published. The only thing we have killed so far died at a day old because Apple deleted the screenshot sizes it depended on, which is a market vanishing rather than a verdict. This would be the first one shut down for the ordinary reason: nobody wanted it.
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
a sale, an approval, a promotion, a firing and $18.09 is the most founder week ever lol
It was. Week five has been one install, which turned out to be our own dev store, so the sixth is going to have to work harder.
a dev store install as week five's only download is brutal. rooting for a real number six

respect for saying it straight. two more products shipped is still real progress, rooting for week six.
Week six has a date in it, as it happens.
